Chapter 2

You all are heading to the Kalen Forest at the northern most point of our zone. SSG Kaufman and Sgt. Netzer you will be joined by CTP Gibson he will be there so order is kept and no one get out of hand." Every one in the room started laughing except SGT Looney "Ok men god speed" CTP Pinero said. All of them had two days rest and to get every thing sorted out what they think they will need. SSG Chamblee was taking two WRX Assault Rifles one FT 50 AL D Vulcan cannon and four heavy grenades. SSG Pion taking duel FT 50 AL D Vulcan and a HE Grenade Launcher and four heavy grenades. SGT Looney is taking a HE Sniper rifle, Hydro Shotgun, 50 cal Pistol, and four heavy grenades. CPT Gibson. SSG Kaufman and SGT Netzer in the Berserker Vehicle and see what things they think they may need, SGT Netzer get the ammo for the weapons and he get a few hand weapons for the three of them. SSG Kaufman checks the communication equipment and CPT Gibson see if there is anything else they need.

That night SSG Chamblee, SSG Pion, SSG Kaufman, SSG Langford, Sgt. Looney, and Sgt. Netzer talk about going to the local bar. SSG Chamblee was a little drunk before they left; he was a bigger guy so he could drink a lot more then most men. Well SSG Langford was talking to SSG Hugey and trying to get him to go out too, SSG Hugey decided to go.

They all went out to the bar, when they head out they took the shuttle train to the bar it was about thirty minutes. On the way the guys where minding there own business and there was a group of other guys that where drinking and looking for so fun. They had approached SSG Chamblee and were talking shit and would not back down. SSG Chamblee knew the guy where drunk so he did not pay any attention to them. When he did that they got pissed off and one of the guys took his beer bottle and slammed it off his head. He laughed and turned to his friends. SSG Chamblee look very pissed off now he could not hold back his anger and pick the guy up and started slamming him all around the shuttle car they where in. the other guys ran at SSG Chamblee as he did this SSG Langford and SSG Hugey moved up to SSG Chamblee. The other guys tried to fight them but it was no use the three of them beat this living shit out off them. SSG Pion got up and told SSG Chamblee and the other let go. SGT Looney got up and stated walking to them and one of the guys got up and pulled a knife on him. SGT Looney took the knife with ease, he took it in such a way he broke the guy's hand at the wrist. The man fell and cried like a bitch, SGT Looney looked at him and said you're a fucking bitch, you fight unfair, oh and do not fuck with us again or it will be worse next time. They had left the train and walk to the bar it was only ten min for where they where. As they walk they talked. SSG Chamblee what a buss kill, now I need to drink more to have fun, and then every one start to laugh. SSG Hugey looked over a SGT Looney and saw something that he thought would never happen, Looney your laughing. SGT Looney replies well I need to ha fun as well right. SSG Hugey just nodded his head.

They finally made it to the bar, they went in and there where not that many people yet it was still early. A few hours pasted and every one but SGT Looney and SSG Pion was dancing and having fun. As for SSG Pion and SGT Looney they sat back and had a few drinks. The night was going good for the guys, SSG Pion meet a women there she was very cute, she was SSG Pion's height she had Brown hair with blond strikes and blue eyes. She had a great body from what we could see, she had good sizes tits and her ass was good size not big but not small. SSG Pion was hoping to be getting some tonight. The two of them started to dance and have fun with the rest of the guys. As for SGT Looney he minded his own business and drank his drink. SSG Hugey saw him sitting there alone and went over to him, "What the hell are you doing" Hugey said. SGT Looney just looked at him with a blank stair, come on Hugey said grabbing him and pulled him to the dance floor and put him right in the middle. SGT Looney still with a blank stair "I can not dance" he says. Just move your body and move your legs Hugey told him. Ok I will try Looney says, He does what Hugey told him to do. SGT Looney make a complete fool out of him self, he feels so embarrassed and leave the dance floor. Just before he get out of there a woman grabs his hand and pull him in close to her. Come on "do not worry every one is drunk and having fun you should too." Now they all where having fun, SGT Looney were having fun now. It lasted for hours; they did not get back to base until about four in the morning. Some how they all got lucky and had girls with them. So they had fun even after they got back to the base. It was about 1100 hours when the girls had all left, so the guys got some sleep except for SGT Looney. As for SGT Looney he went to the hanger to check on his Battle Buster. He stayed up all day and worked on the AI of his Battle Buster. They other guys did not wake up until about four in the afternoon. They headed to work on there battle Buster and saw that SGT Looney was still up working, SSG Pion ordered him to go and get some sleep, SGT Looney did not have any choose in the matter so he went to go to his quarters and sleep. When he got there he had several messages for the women he had sleep with earlier that day. He just wanted to rest and goes to sleep, so he just fell on his bed and fell asleep. SSG Pion was with his girl that night they just talked; their relationship was going pretty good. As for the other guys they work on their Battle Buster.

The next day was the day of the mission; it was going to be an early morning wake up. SSG Chamblee, SSG Pion, SSG Kaufman CPT Gibson, and SGT Netzer got ready and they flow out about 0430 and they had made it to the forest about 0450, they guyed looked a little nerves but SSG Pion looked calm. SSG Chamblee asks why they looked so calm. The only reason why I am calm is that I know what we are capable of doing. Ok if you say so SSG Kaufman said. Ok cut the radar messages and get ready. They had got read to move out, go go CTP Pinero said over the radio. They lined up and parachuted down, they where on ground at 0510, they set up a perimeter and scanned for enemies they where going to meet with SSG Fruge, SSG Turnner and SGT Looney in the area. They had headed out four hour before them. They had meet up with them fifteen minutes after touch down. SSG Fruge reported no action in the area, and that there where no animals in area so there had to been something here. The eight of they move north through the forest, they almost head back in but SSG Kaufman came over the radio and said he pick something up for a brief moment. All the Battle Buster moved headed in the direction where they enemy where late spotted on the radar. The Berserker Vehicle went in behind the Battle Busters. When they had got about five hundred meters out side the range of it they stood on high ground looking down. They could not see anything, until something moves and it look to be invisible. SSG Kaufman said "there is no way we will be able to hit anything if we can not see them, I think we should use the inferred. We should be able to see them then." All the Battle Buster turned in on and then the SGT Netzer turned on the Berserkers inferred on. There was a base here we did not know who it belong to. It did not seem like there was any people here, all they could see where robotic machines. SSG Chamblee, SSG Pion, SSG Fruge, and SSG Turnner got ready to head down to attack. SGT Looney stayed on the high ground and set up with the HE sniper rifle. SSG Kaufman got higher up so he could relay back to home base what was going on. Home base told them to wait, they needed a grid so they could have fighter plains come in and bomb the target first. SSG Kaufman gave the grid and wait. Plains flow over and drop there bombs and so as they flow off home base gave the go a head.

The Battle buster went to attack, Sgt. Looney stated to snipe the robotic machines that he could see. SSG Kaufman called home base and told them there where a lot of robotic machines and may need Bravo Squad to back them up, Home base came over the radio and said Bravo team is getting ready and will be flow in over the target as so as possible. Alpha team was holding them back but could not gain any ground. SSG Kaufman picks up Bravo team flying in and told Alpha team. SGT Looney told SSG Kaufman that he was running low on HE Sniper rounds. Home Base came back and said that Bravo team head extra weapons and ammo. SGT Looney look up and saw them parachuting in, seeing them parachute in was an awesome site. You could tell SMG Wilson was as he floating down, he was firing and taking out targets. Bravo team landed in the middle of the base and was lighting every thing up. This gave Alpha time to make it in and help out. At this time CTP Gibson and SGT Netzer are going crazy they want to get in to the battle. SGT Looney runs in to the battle with the shotgun and pistol in both hands. By the time he made it down to the where bravo team was he ran out of rounds. SMG Rincheck throws SGT Looney two WRX Assault Rifles. Alpha and Bravo teams are taking the robotic machines out. SMG Wilson runs out of ammo so he starts using hand-to-hand weapons and tars in the robotic machines. SSG Waterhouse's Battle Buster gets shot in the knee and he loses control of his Battle Buster and moving in to SMG Rincheck line of firer and SSG Waterhouse's Battle Buster get hit badly and he tryed to get out and he had to move fast or he would not be able to make it out alive. SMG Rincheck yells out man down man down. The Berserker Vehicle had moved down to pick him up. SSG Waterhouse ran to the nearest building to take cover, one of the robotic machines saw him and pick him up. SSG Waterhouse was yelling for help but no know could help with out blowing the robot up and if they did that he would have been killed. The robot started to squeeze him, he look to be in a lot of pain yelling help, the robot squeezed so hard that his bones snapped like a twinge and finely he dead blood poring from ever where. The robot then throw him in to the Berserker Vehicle, CTP Gibson claimed out getting SSG Waterhouse's lifeless body and putting him in to the Berserker Vehicle. Next you can hear SGT Netzer yelling then all guns on the Berserker Vehicle fire at the robot, the robot was incinerated.

Bravo team and Alpha team falls back the numbers of the robotic machines where too great. Alpha and Bravo get a good defensive position, and defends their position. The only person that was still down there were SGT Looney and the Berserker Vehicle, the Berserker Vehicle was looking for weapons factories. SSG Pion could not reach SGT Looney on the radio. The Berserker vehicle found on of the weapons factories and started to fire on it. As they did that the Robotic machines started aiming the Berserker vehicle, SGT Looney stepped in to help them and as he tried to help several enemies attack him. SGT Looney Battle Buster was taking a lot of hit disabling a lot of the systems on his Battle Buster and the main system his computer AI. SGT Looney at the same time killing a lot of the enemy, part of robot where everywhere SGT Looney now had to use his own skills to battle. The Battle Buster did not move as fast any more it strained his muscles to move, he had to find a way to get out of there.

All of a sudden an unknown enemy appear on the radar. This enemy had a Battle Buster at lest that is what it looks like. It looked humanoid, but it was faster then a Battle Buster and SGT Looney fire on this new enemy and it dodged every round that SGT Looney fired, there are several thing SGT Looney was think of, what do I do, he thought shit think he said. He started to move away form the enemy the Berserker Vehicle started to fire at the unknown enemy, to buy some time. SGT Looney saw this and started to try and fix the AI in he's Battle Buster. The enemy Battle Buster did not pay any attention to the Berserker Vehicle it just went after SGT Looney. It came up to SGT Looney's Battle Buster knocking him down and then ripped the legs and arms off. There was no way have SGT Looney to escape, SGT Looney finely gave up and got on his radio to get one message out. The only thing he could say was disabled and needs help. SGT Looney got out of his Battle buster and set the self-destruction.

He got in to one of the buildings near by and looked for a weapon. He found what look like an automatic weapon. He would try and make it out or if Alpha and Bravo teams got in to save him. He looks around and noted some big robot but did not look like the rest of them. He climbed up to one of them and opened it up it look just like a Battle Buster controls console. There was a small human looking robot in it but it was not activated. So SGT Looney ripped it out of the robotic Machine and got in side. The robot moved better and smoother then a Battle Buster, so he thought maybe he could bring it back and have the engineers look at it a make better Battle Busters. It had no weapons but an energy sword. The sword was far more advanced form the sword that they had. SGT Looney switched the radio frequency and got a hold of the others. As soon as he got a hold of them his Battle Buster went nuclear wiping out the building his was in, some how the robot he was in some how shielded it self, every thing around the place was destroyed.

SMG Wilson did not believe these robots had copied the Battle Buster. SGT Looney heard another explosion SSG Kaufman came over the radio we need help he just blow up a weapons factory and it started a change reaction and now is going building to building. SMG Wilson came over the radio "get out of there you need to move now, SGT Looney get out with what ever you got in ok now move." SSG. Kaufman moved out and made it back with little resistance but SGT Looney had about twenty robots attack him. SGT Looney comes over the radio I need help. Alpha and Bravo team fired into the area and then robot back off SGT Looney. It gave him just the right about of time to get out of there but he was on the other side of the forest having ten-robot fallow him. He starts to fight them off, but cannot hold them off forever.

Alpha and Bravo team have thirty Robots to take care of them selves. SMG Wilson tells SSG Chamblee and SSG Pion to go and help SGT Looney, They move out to help SGT Looney out. They get over to SGT Looney and help him out they take care of them with little damage. Meanwhile Bravo team and the rest of Alpha team are taking care of the other robots. SMG Wilson tells every one to get back. He says he is going to self-destruct his Battle Buster there is just to many of them. Every one get back and SMG Wilson set to self-destructs his Battle Buster but when we tries to get out it jammed and will not open and he tries to open it up to very last minute but the Battle Buster exposed and all you can see is a big flash and fire, SMG Wilson had died to save the rest of the guys in his sacrifice he takes out all the Robots. No one know he did not make it out, so after hours of searching they take the fact he did not make it and call home base and tell them there on the way back and mission is a successes but with some caustics. Home base tells them that a good work and we will have a ceremony, make it back and brief us on what happen.

They make it back and Home base came over the radio and asks who was in the Robot looking Battle Buster, SGT Looney say that it will be covered in the Brief. Every thing will be gone over in the brief. They make it back in and the men turn in there Battle Busters and equipment. They move down to the briefing room, as soon as they get into the room CTP Pinero says "SMG Rincheck you will be court-marshaled for killing SSG Waterhouse that he would be bumped down to Staff Sergeant, but would not be taken out of the Battle Buster and will continue he duty as a pilot. As for the New Battle Buster SGT Looney will be the pilot until he is dead or they find some one better to pilot it. The engineers will look at it and try to get the technology out of it. Alpha team the rest of the day is yours you will have off unless we will need you and Bravo team your next mission is at 0830 tomorrow so be ready to go back out there. SSG Kaufman you are going out with SGT Netzer and CTP Gibson but SGT Netzer your going to be in a Battle Buster and sorry CTP Gibson you will be Driving and SSG Kaufman you will be the gunner. All right get out of my briefing office."

The next day Bravo team goes into the briefing room to get the information on the next mission. Bravo team you will be going back in to the base that we discovered the day prier. You will see if you can find out anything about the enemy. Also see if you can recover the Battle Buster of SMG Wilson and any other robot still salvageable, next you will be airlifted to the desert to west of the US territory and find out what is going on there. We have got some Intel that there are terrorist's attack on the city in the area you will be leaving early so go out and try and come back alive. Ok now get the hell out of my briefing room.
